Why We Love Them

Because they sparkle like diamonds, eat pests like a champ, and thrive where other plants throw tantrums. Cape Sundews are endlessly fascinating — you can literally watch them curl around their prey. They’re proof that plants can be beautiful and a little unhinged (in the best way).
